Hanged in EHigy.

Governor Gordon, OF Georgia, was
hanged in engy last week, at Dalton,
Ga, for committing the sentence OF
one Holman, senteuced to be hanged
for numbering a young white wonon,
to Imprisonment for life. Four thous-
and people had assembled to witness
the execution. They expressed their
indignation at the action OF the Gov

TEACHERS INSTITUTE,

School Commissioner Wilder is now in
correspondence with the School Commis-
sioners of Clarendon, kershaw, and Oar
lington Counties, for the purpose of organ
lZng q Joint Teachers institute. to be held
IN this County in the early part Of August,
either at Sumter or B;shopv:lle. 4 fayora-
BILE reply has been received from Clarendon
County. HatchnQa1t'I !S3eQhron
From the School Commissioner OF
Clarendon, we learn that the money
to oeSray the expenses ct this Institute,
proposed to be held in Sumter, is to
come from the Peabody fund of the
State. Il this is tie case, Clarendon
will willingly unite with Sumter, and
reap all the advantages to be derived
from holding such an Institute there.
But the benefit of a teachers institute,
held in Sumter, to the teachers of
clarendon, as q body, is too insigmff-
.caEt to attach much Importance. Our
teachers, or By far the greater number,
>are too poor to incur the costs Of the
trip and the expenses of a protr octed
stay in the town of Sumter, which will
be necessary for them to attend the
meetings of the Institute. For this
reason, if the school fund of Claren don
has to be taxed to share the costs Of
an Institute for teachers in Sum. ter
y or any where else, the taxpayers as
well as teachers of this county Will c'b-
ject strenuousiy. An institution Of
this kind to be OF any real advantage
to the teachers of Clarendon, must he
held here where they can regularly at
tend its exercises. The school Law $
allow 5000 Of the school money to b e
used for this purpose. The late Insti;-
tute here, under the supervision OF the
predecessor of the present Schoo !
Commissioner gave general satlsfac
tion, and, no doubs, did incalculabln
good. It opened the eyes Of the "ol<i
field" teachers to the happier methods
now used for imparting knowledge, al
the same time giving them a truel
conception of the great responsibility
andimportance of their noble voca-
tions. Our School Commissioner
could not spend this 5000 more ad-
vantageously in the cause Of educa-
ton, that by having another institute
for the teachers during the first weeks
of August. Clarendon does not object
to the plan advocated by the Watch
man and Sowhron, provided it does
not cost the county, directly, an
money.

II CATTLE FAIR.

The approaching cattle fair is Great
ing great interest among ~raisers of fine
stock in the county and inquiries are
coming in very fast and numerously.
The fair will be held May 18th, at
McMackin's stables, on Morgan street.
The managers r very active, and
anticipating a large and fine display of
stock, are making preparations accord
ingly. Parties proposing to- enter
stock for display should call On or
write to Mr. 7. H. Briggs, secretary,
at once. The. Office is in T. Fl. Briggs
& Sons hardware store, %
! The new and special feature of this
fair will be the auction sale of fine
stock on the day of the exhibition. 1t
is determined that all stock offered
j shall be just as represented in breed
and no by-bidding will be permitted.
In the fair oflast year there were ex-
hibited l97 fine cattle, and it is thought
that the number in this years exhibit
will greatly exceed that. The proper
effort. and cooperation of the cattle
raisers in this county will make the
f~airogreatly to their interest, besides
bringing together the finest display of
stock and the largest crowd of specta-
tors ever yet seen on the occasion of
the Wake County Cattle Fair. It is
hoped they will heartily join in the
work.-News and Observer.

ton crop. It makes the growth steady
and uniform and nothing contributes
more than such growth to fruiting
and the holding on to fruit. Rapid
growth, followed by a sudden check,
is the chief cause of shedding. We
cannot, always prevent the check but
we may do something towards putting
the crop in condition to receive it with
least injury. The object of the farmer
should be to keeplh his cotton growing
steadily but not too. rapidly. Rapid
growth is always dangerous It makes
a sappy, tender plant, extremely SEN
sitive to every adverse influence

ENSILAGE.
How to Make Silos and Fill Them With
the Best Material.

How to Make Si1os and Fill Them With
the Best Material.
Editor Roanoke News:
In your correspondence I see report
ed that a Mr.. Whitehead lost five
mules from eating rotten ensilage. l
must think there was some other cause.
[ have been using ensilage, now, about
four years, and feed horses, mules, COWS
and hogs on it; and if ever I have had
one sick [ never found it out. AS to
rotten ensilage, it is all the while lying
about the horse lot and stock yard. 1
feed my cows on the ground at the
door of the silo, and am not particular
about not throwing out some rotten
ensilage in their feed. They eat the
sound and leave the rotten there. [
am particular about not putting any
rotten in the horses feed; still the
horses run out in the yard where it
lies and I have seen them picking over
it but never with any bad results.
Ensilage, like other things, should
be made right. [ think I have made
some as good as [ ever saw. [ prefer
to make it from peas and pea vines. I
let my peas get fully ripe; let at least
one-half of them be dry and the other
full grown and some yellow leaves on
the vines; cut them down and put
them in the silo Immediately; and I
prefer filling up the silo in four or five
days, never letting it stand more than
one day before putting in more peas.
Then the more you al get into n
silo the better the ensilage. Experience
has taught me that the ensilage near
the bottom is best. My silo is built
above ground, walled up ten feet, ten
feet wide and twenty long-two rooms
Of equal size. Pack in as long and as
close as you can and have it filled
above the top, but when you put on
the cover and the weight it will go
! down to about six feet deep. Then
there is always near the top Of the
cover about ten. or twelve inches which
is not good.
My intention is, this fall, to cut into
the ground and make mine two feet
deeper, so as to get more into one
room, for the same loss in each CON-
partment, which shows that the more
that can be gotten into one room the
more good ensilage there will be.
There were two farmers near here
last fall who built their first silos, both
of whom have considerable. stock and
both are well pleased with them. =
Very truly, J. J. BARRETT:
'Ringwood, NC. n. ~ = s >
P. S.-Plenty of weight should al
ways be put on-at least two and a
half feet of dirt, and three would be
better.

WORKING COTTON.

Cotton calls for frequent working
In it's early stages /; it is important to
push it rapidly beyond the point where
1T suffers from "sore shins" and lice.
In the olden time it was thought best
to side cotton with scooter, shovel or
other deep-running plows. Ample
experience has shown that this is
neither necessary nor desirable. The
crop is best cultivated from beginning
to end with sweep or scrape, set to
run quite shallow. A soil deeply
broken before planting, but allowed to
settle and become somewhat compact
provided that the surface is kept
stirred seems most conducive to fruit
ing. Aside from the matter of root,
cutting, there seems to be a decided
Advantage in shallow culture to d cot
